When I think of hairspray, I think of chemical-filled ingredients known to make your hair look hard or crunchy, or you can say to lock your hair in shape. If you are prone to allergic reactions, it could be a no for you to use a store bought hairspray as those hair sprays are full of chemicals and can cause hair damage and allergic reactions.
Fortunately, you can make a homemade version of hairspray all by yourself, and it is natural and budget-friendly and would be effective for your hair. Below I have listed three natural hairspray recipes with simple basic ingredients that you can find at your home easily.
